FTSE 250 movers: Currys, Energean in the black

(Sharecast News) - London's FTSE 250 was up 2% at 17,930.60 in afternoon trade on Tuesday. Currys rallied after the electricals retailer said it has received interest from several potential buyers for its Greek business, Kotsovolos.

Responding to speculation in local media, the company - which announced in June that it was kicking off a strategic review of the business - said the potential buyers have submitted non-binding offers that are currently being evaluated by the board and its advisers.

"The strategic review remains ongoing, and Currys will provide a further update when appropriate," it said, adding that there can be no certainty as to the outcome of the review.

Energean - which is developing a gas field offshore Israel - was regaining some ground, having tanked on Monday on concerns about the impact of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
